2010 Throttle performance
What is the general opinion of the throttle response with the new "throttle by wire" of the newer baggers? My opinion is a little sku'd due to I came off a Dyna that went like hell...
don't get me wrong! I love the RG but it lacks a little oomf! & yea, I know theres a few hundred LB's difference.

really haven't noticed myself either, having work done to my TBW bike right now including a tune where they said the throttle opening speed can be adjusted. Don't think it really needs to be..

If you use the SE tuner or the TTS tuner I know you can change the "progressive" throttle opening that the bike comes with stock. I have ridden mine that has not been changed and a friends who's was changed and the bike felt alot stronger.

Your 10 RG also has cats, unless you changed the pipes.
That is a de-oompher for sure.
I came from an 07 Superglide to my 10 Road King. I honestly can't feel any differance in throttle, but the cats kill everything. They are coming off after my current road trip.
